In Reply to: Re: "He has reviewed a grand total of thirteen of the of the last 100 films I have seen." posted by Donald on August 2, 2006 at 03:28:06:
"Rosenbaum most certainly is a fan of Bergman, just less so of his later work."Incorrect. You should try reading. Maybe even comprehending. Rosenbaum is most certainly not a fan of his later work. "I find a neurotic spitefulness and puritanical narrowness in the films he made after the 60s." This is not the statement of a critic who is a fan of a director.
Me change the subject? You must be more daft than I thought. You changed the subject with the following in your response - "Stands to reason he doesn't waste time on most of the mainstream shit you're drawn to."
Well, knowing that you have difficulty checking facts, and rather than childishly respond to an insult in kind, I provided you a list of the "mainstream" films that Rosenbaum has "wasted his time on", that clearly demonstrated you to be the lazy person that you are, or that you really do not read Rosenbaum, but like to name drop. Otherwise, if you read him, would not you know that he regularly reviews mainstream films? I like to help the factually challenged.
Your response? You again duck (pun intended), and hurl insults. The last vestige of the intellectually dishonest and mentally lazy. Perhaps before you put finger (probably only index) to key and prove to us the vastness of your vocabulary, you could edumacate me as to what you were writing about when you wrote that Rosenbaum does not waste time on mainstream films.
Follow Ups:
Let's assume Rosenbaum totally despises Bergman. So what? Rosenbaum has certainly reviewed some mainstream films, there was no contention to the contrary. Again, so what? What are these diversionary topics supposed to demonstrate? You totally digressed from the topic of L'humanite to launch into a petty, pointless assault on Rosenbaum, citing facts which are in support of nothing. As usual, you seem to have no apparent purpose other than to be a contrary prick.You're not only a philistine, you're dumb as a fuckin' brick. Sorry for being too intellectually lazy to initially address your strawman arguments. Would you care to erect another for everyone to laugh at now, genius?
With apologies to Fat Albert:Dumbass Donald quote #1: "Stands to reason he doesn't waste time on most of the mainstream shit you're drawn to."
Dumbass Donald Quote #2: "Rosenbaum has certainly reviewed some mainstream films, there was no contention to the contrary."
When confronted with facts, retreat, hunker down, then begin the vulgarities. Although you seem to coming 'round on the Bergman thing. Claiming that someone is the world's best film critic but does not like Bergman is like saying that someone who hates the sound of the violin is the world's best classical music critic.
I like my roasted duck plain, thank you.
Good grief, you're illiterate, too. I never said he never reviews mainstream film, but it's quite obviously not something if spends a lot of time on, as even a casual glance at this body of work reveals."Stands to reason he doesn't waste time on most of the mainstream shit you're drawn to."
Do you have nothing better to do than embarrass yourself with feeble, petty arguments? Go watch a fucking movie.
